35 would be a heat wave up here. 8 degrees right now.:sun: Walk over to your fridge, open the freezer and think what it would be like to live in there for 5 months

Here is a screen shot from today of the Nav in my Jeep. A couple of interesting points ... Note that it is 12 F, and that it isn't even that early in the day. And note that I am on westbound Hwy 56, in Utah, and that the speed limit on that highway is 105 mph. When was the last time you saw a highway with that speed limit. Somehow I don't think the highway patrol would care that my GPS said I could legally go 105 mph.

Are your temp and speed/distance settings in metric?

12C is about 54F; 105 KM/H is about 65 MPH.

I hate every single one of you posting about warm temps and "missing the winter". (not really, but kind of)

I've lived in Upstate NY for my entire life. If I could move someplace where i wouldn't have to freeze in -20 weather while shoveling 2 feet of snow, I would move in a heartbeat. Bonus for being near the ocean, and some of the awesome trails (like out west). Bigger bonus if I can go snowboarding and then go to the ocean and comfortably wear shorts in the same day.

Sadly I am trapped here because my wife won't let that happen. At least not yet.

Its actually warmer in the freezer . Now thats effed up. This is my last winter here !
I guess since I have lived in Texas all my life is one reason I like the cold. I would love to live up north and mountains. Plus my wife calls me a furnace. I am just too hot-natured not to love the cold. But she hates the cold so I am for now still a Texan. I get stared at for driving topless now in the cold here. So be it.

The temp setting is not metric. It was frigid cold, and everything was frozen solid, so not 54F. The speed setting may be metric. I've only had the Jeep for a week, and have to go through the settings on the Nav part. The settings on the dash are standard, not metric.

Browse through your Uconnect settings: you can adjust temp and speed in metric or US separately from each other.

Currently about 25°F in Albany, NY. Snowstorm in progress. One foot in 5 hours, another foot expected.

Second winter up here for me and my family. We've had a blast :) spent the previous 4 years in FL (Miami for 3, Orlando for 1). Really thankful to get out of the year-round heat.
